Standards Support for Open PGP

GoAnywhere is compliant with the Open PGP standard. The Open PGP standard is a non-proprietary and industry-accepted protocol which defines the standard format for encrypted messages, signatures and keys. This standard is managed by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). See RFC2440 at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2440.txt?number=2440 for more details on the Open PGP standard.

Asymmetric Encryption Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman
DSA
RSA
The key sizes supported are 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096 bits.
